He didn't have a trillion dollars. He has stocks that have a market cap of a trillion.
Well then that makes the starving children fully justified
Speculative hunger
We all know mate. No one is saying he has a trillion dollars sitting in a bank account. Money is also fake. We made it up. It's just less fake to you than stocks.
Stocks are speculation on the value of a company. Currency is speculation on the value of a country.
They both become worthless if we all go arm ourselves and kill the right people. They're nothing more than ideas we all decide to agree on. We (the world) all just happen to currently agree that we measure an individuals "wealth" to include their current stocks they hold.
I don't know why this "smart" dumb guy comment has to be in every thread about Elon. Who is this for?
No need to kill, just transfer the ownership to all the workers and the public. Networth above 10mil should be a livesentence. There is no reason for an individual to own that much.
And killing them and making it worthless would benefit us how?
I think you really need to work on your reading comprehension. I never said that.
Because then I will finally have something to eat.
How? Unless you mean literally a body to eat
Um, yeah..?
Elon is pretty much what a human raised to be a meat cow would look like if that were a thing.
He looks like he’d taste like asparagus pee
Ok then I'll take a few billion of his stocks to redistribute. Every problem has a solution.
And that would do what exactly?
Um... redistribute a portion of the worlds hoarded ill gotten wealth
How much bread can you buy with SpaceX stock?
Technically about a trillion. In reality, at least a few for everyone on the planet.
But that wealth is stocks on company's that don't name a profit. How would distributing those stocks help us?
Well we’ve tried not doing it this whole time and that doesn’t really seem to be working out so maybe we try it just this once.
We can, but i think it would just make the problem worse.
Okay but you don’t KNOW. so let’s just try it just this one time.
So we are going to take stocks from companies that don't turn a profit, and try to extract crash to fund programs to help everyone in a liquidity crunch.
This is will work out well
You rapidly sell all the stocks, cash out while tanking the bullshit company and reducing the wealth of all those heavily invested in it. Win, win, win.
You can't do that. He's required to submit forms about sells, and he's not asked to still spaceX for one year
It's fine we can just do the trades and the SEC can fine him a few thousand later.
I have free unlimited power...
That's kinda how the bubble economy works yes
